The annual 1906 dinner was held this year at the University Club in Boston on the eve of the Harvard game, October 25. Those in attendance were Lymie Frazier, Tom Connell, Norman Russell, Harvey Whittemore, Nat Leverone, Ralph Thompson, Mike O'Brien, "T" Brown, Ned French, Roy Denison, Arthur Holmes, Max Hartmann, Randall Cooke, and Francis Childs. After the dinner we all adjourned to the comfortable quarters of our class president, who was staying at the Club for the week-end, and spent a delightful evening discussing everything from cabbages to kings. A feature of this bull session was having Mike recite for us again "The Tomb of Napoleon," which he did every whit as well as thirty years ago.
